Quinta de San Michel

The exclusive wine Malvarinto de Janas is a unique blend of two grape varieties: Malvasia de Colares and Arinto. Malvarinto de Janas combines the aromatic complexity, clearly present in Malvasia, with the crisp acidity of Arinto.

Arinto, when blended with grape varieties that are lower in organic acids, such as Malvasia, greatly benefits from this combination. Malvasia, when paired with Arinto, results in a unique typicity and personality.

Malvasia + Arinto = Malvarinto

Vinification: Grapes are hand-harvested into 20 kg bins and transported to the winery. They undergo destemming and crushing, followed by direct pressing. The wine is then decanted for 36 hours. Part of the fermentation takes place in barrels, with the rest in stainless steel tanks.

Aging: 8 months in French oak barrels (20% new) and 28 months in bottle.

Winemaker: Alexandre Guedes.

Food Pairing: Pairs perfectly with grilled fish, such as bass or ray, and is an excellent match for Serra da Estrela cheeses and black pork ham.
